Ask HN: Looking for Python Roadmap, specifically when is python 4 coming?
- svennek 9y agoTwo answers: 1) If you are looking for 4.0 as a number .. who knows (3.6 is current, 3.7 is next version), who knows when they switch from 3.x to 4.x... versions numbers does not matter that much to open source people... 2) If you think of the breakage between 2.x and 3.x ... a breakage like that is probably never gonna happen again... Re 2) The 2.x to 3.x happened due to version 2 having a horrible problem with strings vs. bytes and encodings... There probably are no other problems ever with that kind of scale..
- fosco 9y ago2 is my concern - I started learning in 2.x most of my scripts are broken in 3.x and I am not a programmer so before I start diving into learning which I aim to do I want to know if its possible my scripts can break again :-) thanks ofr the input that is what I've read but was hoping if python 4 was coming out soon I can just procrastinate a little more.
